This is a kernal issue go with darchDroid 2.7, it will fix that problem
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
did you flash a different kernel? What version of tether?

if you really feel it's the driver, pull the wlan.ko from the original zip and push it into place to overwrite.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Takanitch:
I just encountered the same problem as the OP on my HTC Hero CDMA. I rooted my phone with RegawMOD3.0 yesterday and within a few hours my Wifi stopped working. I'm getting "unable to start wifi" and "unable to stop wifi" in airplane mode. The only other thing I did was get the Adblocker app, which i thought may have cause an issue so I did a factory reset on my phone and still no dice. From what I've read it's either the kernel or wifi driver and I'm unsure what one to try and fix first. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Kernel version:

2.6.29-ba77cf03

htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

Firmeware version:

2.1-update1

Build number:

2.51.591.4 CL343325 release-keys
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Takanitch:
Well, whatever the issue was it was solved when I put cynogen 7.2 Nightly in. My Wifi is working perfectly now.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oohaylima:
Yeah. I'm impressed they're still making nightlies for this phone. :D
[Android Apps and Games] spaboleo:
Hello everyone,

i really like android's stock-contact app. :)

This even was one of the reasons for me to flash a customRom instead of using HTC Sense on my Desire further on.

But what I really dislike is:

I've got a few hundred contacts imported to google-contacts and they are all organized in groups.

I would love to define a "standard group", which users are shown on startup.

I know that the app aContacts has such a feature, but it doesn't work properly on the HTC Desire.

(...I'm assuming due to the deep changes the whole social-media integration required. Even in my installed Pays customRom I got problems with aContacts...maybe an sense relict?)

Any other app-advices? :)

Thank you in advance!

Best wishes

[Mogul, XV6800 General] nedfunnell:
Hello,

For the past couple days while I was on a camping trip I have had a really annoying problem. I cannot receive text messages right now- or rather, I cannot view them. What will happen when I get a text message is that it will show up on the today screen- I will see the "text 1", but when I go to view the text, it takes me to the inbox- but the text isn't there. This has happened with a dozen texts over a few days, before and after a soft reset, and hasn't -not- happened to any texts. I haven't been able to get/view any new texts for several days. I know that texts are actually coming, because I can send myself a text from vtext.com and my phone will show that I have a new text- but I can't see it in my inbox. Also, I once caught a text right as it was coming in and was able to read the first part of it, but when I went to reply... it wasn't there.

I am using RyanMogul's light ROM, latest build.

I have two questions:

How can I stop this from happening?

Can I view the texts I have lost over the past few days?

Thank you!
[Mogul, XV6800 General] nedfunnell:
Well, I figured out how I can view the old texts, sort of- I did a PIM backup with compression and binary turned off, then copied that file to my PC, unarchived it with 7-zip, then opened the messages folder in notepad (or excel). The message text was buried in plaintext among a lot of code.

I am not sure what caused this, the only thing I really know is that when PIM backup prompted me for what to back up, it showed _two_ messages sections. Odd. I also discovered I'd lost the ability to sent texts.

I figure I'll just re-flash and see if that fixes the problem. I'll hold off on going to another ROM because I don't want to chance losing my hard-won GPS capability.
[HD2 General] RichmondoUK:
If you have installed new windows live essentials beta, there is a service feature to link your facebook profile to your msn messenger. DO NOT do this, causes sync issues in windows mobile. mainly editing a contact on your phone. i had to change my email account because of this. microsoft are wan**ers and can't help!!!!!!!
[HD2 General] Fif23:
is there a Live Beta for WM ? Link ?
[HD2 General] RichmondoUK:
google, live essentials beta! try this on a test account tho!!! have been warned

live essentials is pc program

[HD2 General] adrian-polglase:
I have to say that personally, I've linked my Facebook profile amongst others with Windows Live and have installed the Wave 4 Windows Live Essentials beta and have had no sync issues with Windows Live on Windows Mobile...

Weird.

I just came over from a Fuze running WM6.5. One thing I've about it was that I could install different taskbar icons.

Do they exists on Android? I've searched and found nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] evilkorn:
Yes, they are mostly part of themes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vlad88:
hello, well you just left on the screen attached to the board when you set a white background or some application that has a white background you see a thin green line? or is it just my case? try to look you can barely see, but you see ... miraccomando with a white background is dark .. if no one sees practically nothing ... try to check the open page of google and look on the edge of the left is or there is a tiny green line?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] terrorblind:
hmmm weird.. but that is actually true.. its just like one thin line of green pixels
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vlad88:
yes, just like one thin line of green pixels
[Galaxy S I9000 General] navmanyeah:
I see it too, and I really don't think its a problem. Didn't even notice it until now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] terrorblind:
i dont notice it in my daily use of the phone though.. if i did, i would probaly get it fixed.. its only when it is a completly white background, like google

-TB-
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vlad88:
ok, I was concerned that this green line of pixels related only to my galaxy s...thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vlad88:
i too dont notice it in my daily use of the phone though, only when it is a completly white background.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
It's not a line of pixels, it's either an unused part of the screen's matrix, a sealing material for the screen layer casing, or the tip of the integrated touch panel.

Either way, what you see is not a part of the 800X480 matrix you've been promised, and i really had to make an effort untill i saw it. If this thread wouldn't be here, i would never know it's there.

It sometimes boggles my mind how far people would go to find "problems" with their new belongings, it's like they like to complain.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bushrat:
Look closely on the other side, A thin grey/purple line! omg

Isnt this all related to pentile ? thats what I thought initialy.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I have the same thing but don't see it as a problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vlad88:
I don't have a grey or purple line on the other side, only green on the left side
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
Hey, guys?

Pick up a Nexus one/HTC Desire, look to the same spot.

Suprised? i'm not.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] systoxity:
can you just tell us what it looks like lol?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
Oh come on....

meh, i guess sarcasm doesn't work in text.

Anyways, the same green line is there. Not suprising considering the screen is made by samsung as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nanolite:
This is related to the PenTile Matrix. I don't know the order of the pixels on the SGS so I can't exactly explain why it's the way it is. Anyways this is the difference:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
Looks like a minor bug. Put a black to white edge inwards from the edge and there is no green band. Not hard to fix, but dont much care about it either.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Asori:
Samsung's Galaxy S uses an RGBW stripe, opposed to the N1's RG:BG stripe.

i have the same "issue". a bit annoying to be honest.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] emperatour:
i have a problem with my galaxy s. i had root my galaxy. and install rayanZa lag fix. but the problem is about freezing screen ! when i am typing an sms the down corner of display at most freezes. its random. when i press power button and again prees it(tyrn off on display) it works goood again. or when i am sliding top bar to end of display(down) fully it sticks and i must press back button to close this bar. i did hard reset and flashing but its same yet... i did screen diagnostic test by the codes and it seem ok. display seems normal and no dead pixel it seems to have. all phisycall seems normal. sorry for my bad english . whats problem? any solution?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ltwo:
just to confirm if everyone is talking about the same lines i am seeing on SGS.

here are pics

there is a line intercepting the search box

http://i55.tinypic.com/2isfjif.jpg

there is a line beside the S in the middle of the pic (or intercepting the S) and there is another one directly below that line.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] samy.3660:
hi,

Is the problem very common, i mean its there in all the devices?? Coz i have desire and the pink hue is quite annoying. So if the problem is common with all the device, i think i wont buy it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ltwo:
it's not the end of the world to be honest. can hardly notice it unless you put the phone right in front of your face. and frankly how many people carry their phone that close?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rizlo:
It's not a defect, it's there by design. One of the downsides of the PenTile subpixel structure. I can live with it.

Nope, this is a completely different issue, they're talking about the little green glow that runs along the entire left side of the SAMOLED screen. Your thin horizontal lines may be in fact a hardware defect (or scratches?).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] QYV:
I have the same lines on my new SGS, I am contemplating a replacement. They show up the best on lower brightness and almost disappear at the highest brightness.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Bryza1000:
Hi everybody,

I've been using the slacker radio app in canada for the last month or so, and have been really loving it.

Today when I go to sign in, they will not let me sign in without upgrading to monthly subscription.

Is this something just for canada? Limiting you to one month for free? Or is it a universal limitation on slacker?

I like the application a lot, but its not worth subscribing to. I think I will just turn on the actual radio!

Let me know what you think
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] citizen416:
same thing happened to me. i just deleted it. never bothered reinstalling.
[EVO 4G Accessories] oblivion0:
Hi Everyone,

So I just noticed a small scratch on the outer frame of my Evo's back camera frame today. :/ Unfortunately it's over the red paint job so it's quite obvious - and I'm now one day out of my 30 day return policy to boot, go figure. Oh well, another scratch amongst generations of cell phone ownership. :rolleyes:

Hoping for a few suggestions of worthwhile cases available. I've seen quite a few options available on Ebay and various retailer websites (Seido, TPU, rubberized snap-ons, decals, etc. to name a few), but I'm hoping to get user input.

Ideally, I want something that won't add excess bulk to the phone, and will protect the back camera and maybe withstand a accidental drop or two without popping off.

I don't really have a need for anything that clips to a belt, but I would like something that supports the kick stand.

Thanks in advance!!
[EVO 4G Accessories] phobos512:
I've had the Best Buy Body Glove style case (bulky, grippy but the logos were raised and so wasn't grippy on a surface, cheap feeling), Sprint silicone case (loose fitting, grippy, covers a lot of the front of the phone, picks up dirt like crazy because of the grippy), and the new TPU case (looks grippy but is smooth, fits very tight on the phone, bottom port cutouts not as generous as the Sprint silicone case). For $6 shipped after the coupon available in the thread the TPU case in my opinion is unbeatable. I posted a ton of pics of the TPU case, they're on page 2 of the thread linked above also.
[EVO 4G Accessories] oblivion0:
Thanks I'll check this out, sounds like it may be exactly what I'm looking for.

Any idea what the turnaround time is on shipping?
[EVO 4G Accessories] erikivy:
I've bought three of

these

so far, two for me in red and black, and a black one for a friend. They fit tight and have a nice and durable finish. Here is a pic of my red one that I took while installing a mounting disc for a car mount.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Vinny75:
I ordered my TPU case on tuesday and got it on thursday with the standard first class shipping.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SilverZero:
Ordered mine today (Saturday afternoon), hoping for similar fast shipping. :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] PantsMahone:
The Body Glove case is absolute junk. Within the first couple of days, the thin piece of plastic by the volume buttons broke off, and two minor drops resulted in pieces of the case breaking off, and both times the case came completely off the phone.

Meritline sells Skytouch cases for $6.99 and they're great. I've had the transparent one for a couple weeks now and am really impressed with the quality, especially for the price. It fits snugs, is easy to put on and take off and is thick enough to be plenty protective but thin enough not to add much bulk. I've dropped it twice since I added the transparent case and it has not cracked, or popped off.

[EVO 4G Accessories] oblivion0:
Guys, just to follow up on this thread...I've ordered the TPU case and will post a few pics once I receive it.

After a little digging, I also found these hybrid flex skins via blog Good and Evo that seem like they could be viable contenders.

EVO Hard Cover Case

I got these from eBay, and these are very good. I like the feel and the look. I also got the Body Glove black case from Sprint Store but that was making the phone bulky.

i use case mate's barely there case.

http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-EVO-4G-Cases/Case-Mate-HTC-EVO-4G-Barely-There-Cases.asp

it's a snap on case that doesn't protect the front. it protects the back and the camera. its very slim and flexible.

My Seidio Innocase Active Case Limited Edition just shipped from Amazon. It was slightly above your budget at $24.95, but it looks amazing. I'll let ya know when I get it....

Plus there's a bunch of colors for those who like that.....
[EVO 4G Accessories] jfoster38122:
I ordered the blue one and should get it Wednesday
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
wow! nice find! a little pricey for TPU, but they have some great color options!
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
You will be happy with the TPU case, the only gripe I have is that his tolerances were so tight that the damned thing is a bit hard to get off of the phone.

If there was anything I had to complain about it would be not leaving enough room around the headphone and charging spaces to plug a full sized cord in.

Other than that, perfect cases, even if you do have to make a bandaid for the power and volume buttons.
[EVO 4G Accessories] berardi:
if you like rubber cases, I love my $9.95 Amzer Silicone case from Amazon. It's fallen a few times several feet and no damage whatsoever, and it's still pocketable, and makes it a lot easier to grip. I prefer them to hard cases for this reason, makes things much more 1 handable
[EVO 4G Accessories] ritzbrie:
All they have now is matte black, I think. I found some TPU cases on handhelditems, they have the cases in clear, black, pink and a few other obnoxious colors. Cost about $8.00 shipped with the coupon code "30htcoff".

[Captivate Themes and Apps] ewingr:
After the putchase, it was installed, and when I go to select widgets, not all of the widgets are there. No clock, no weather, not sure how many I am supposed to have.

I decided maybe I need to uninstall/reinstall. Went to market, there was no 'reinstall' option. So I went into Settings/Applications/Manage Apps. and uninstalled. Got message I had a refund.

I presume I got the correct app, as it showed the right company in the Google Checkout.

What should be the right process to get this installed, especially if something is wrong.

One thing I find quite interesting with apps for Android: looks like no way to contact many of the sellers. For this for example I went to their web site, didn't see any support or method to contact them.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] systoxity:
This app had downloadble widgets which means not all of them come installed with it.

Further research shows that many users have trouble with this app ranging from issues like yours to battery problems.

The website for the app says that you can contact them through email from the android market. if this is not the case, I would abandon this app on that basis alone lol.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
poppycock app works fine on my n1 and my galaxy s.. once installed all widgets are there you only have to download skins for weather and clock.

try downloading with wifi on.. it is much faster.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] systoxity:
this.

if it works on his galaxy s, it should work on your captivate.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ewingr:
Thanks for the input, but they are not there 'once installed', if then you have to 'download skins for weather and clock'. Seems to me a clock should be a widget, not a skin. On the site, which has all of 1 page talking of features, they mention things about skins, and downloading skin kits. That implies development to me.

I went to the Market online, but that, interestingly enough, you can't even search on. On thes web site, interestingly enough, NO method to contact them there. But thanks to your tip, I do see an email address on the Market from the phone.

This is quite an interesting learning experience.

The web site that is on the Market is not reachable. Maybe trouble tonight.

I'll try the email route and see if I can learn a bit more about what I need to get this stuff working.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
there are 100s of custom clock skins they cannot possibly put them all with the app it would be huge.. you add the beautifull home widget under under skins download and select the clock you want..
[Captivate Themes and Apps] wakeupkeo:
The widget name you want is called Beautiful Home, and when you pick that one it opens up a settings box. Down at the bottom it "save and apply." You gotta hit that button to actually put the widget on the screen. If you hit skins instead you can choose what you want, but you have to apply each time as you back out of the settings interface to make the widget "stick". Small learning curve. Once the widget is up, you can hit the weather to see the big weather popup, and hitting the menu button there brings up settings and skin buttons.

This is my favorite widget, the most reliable. I have submitted skins that were accepted, so I know they are responsive. If you still need help let me know.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ewingr:
Thank you so much for the details. You'd think an app that is at a cost, however small, would have at least a base level of documentation on their web page.

Question: Is Beautiful Home a different set than Beautiful Widgets, or is it just required in order to use Beautiful Widgets?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Beautiful Home is the name of the clock/weather widget that comes with Beautiful Widgets.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ewingr:
Thanks. I got it going.

I was thinking that a 'Home' Widget was a replacement for the home screen or something like that. Its beginning to look like a home widget must be a widget that can be placed on any screen, and is 'home' to other things you will be adding, as opposed to replacing some other home widget. Is that the case in general?

How's that for a tongue twister?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] saint168:
I would like to know if you all recommend this app for the Captivate?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] F1fan07:
Beautiful Widgets + Launcher Pro = Fantastic UI experience
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mesasone:
I've been using weather and toggle widget and like it more than beautiful widget but both are nice.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ewingr:
Which Weather Widget and Toggle Widges are you using?

I have Beautiful Widgets along wiht Beautiful Weather LIve Wallpaper, and really like it. But I'm always interested in seeing what's out there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trev186:
Hi,

I understand how the root process works. Owning a N1 I did not see a whole lot of need until I found out Google will not make a Nexus two and I cringe at the site of some of the carrier phones and their terrible update lag times. My only question is in regards to it wiping your phone. Is is there any way to avoid this? If not I am guessing the solution is just simply making a backup on my computer and than dragging and dropping the files back on to the phone. If not please let me know differently.

I have watched several videos and read several guides but my above question has not been answered very clearly.

In regards to flashing my phone.

This does not make much sense to me. It sounds like I can go between the stock version of my phone and the rooted version and that I would need to do this for OTA updates. Seems like the root community gets updates sooner than OTA so I am not too worried about that. It would be helpful if someone could explain what flashing your phone does exactly and is it something that can be done easily like using an app or do I need to go through the whole bootloading process etc.

My third and final question: If I were to overclock my N1 after rooting my phone what would be the ideal setting for it?

Thank you for your help
